Some of you lot get way to wound up over footballers acting like humans 

But Tommy when you see them playing like it’s a kick around down the park putting in performances like that, kind of rubs salt in the wound when you see them laughing with the opposition at full time. Screams I'm not arsed about what just happened. 

would you see Roy Keane doing that?

First half was dire.   Surprised that we look better in the second half with the subs we made, I have to be honest I thought it was going to get worse.   

 

I've thought the lack of effort to chase people down in the first half was damning.  

 

I think I'm with the majority that we probably do need a change in manager, but not sure how you can get players to actually try as we have now had 18 months of it.

Only shame was that Monga was pretty poor. Decision making really wasn't great. Several opportunities to put the ball in a dangerous area and instead he slowly dribbled towards a defender and got tackled. Time after time.

Wingers will always be up and down in their performances, even over the course of 90 minutes. Monga only getting 10 makes it harsh to criticise.  Just having the presence of another player who can beat a man adds so much more than the backwards pass merchants we have in the side.  Not digging Reid out with that comment despite him being the player that made way for JM.

[Ian Nacho]

That second half proves this manger is holding this team back. They are a poor side and we still needed their keeper to chuck two in to create anything. 

[dmayne7]

Their 3rd was a great strike but you cannot give it any credit from our perspective as it was a carbon copy of the second. Complete lack of desire from players to get out and close the ball down. That's unacceptable. It's easy to say they aren't trying (clearly found more energy in the second), but I don't think you can put that down to anything else apart from a lack of effort in the first.

 

I want to be in a position to give a manager time and cut him some slack, but yet again, another manager that has blown all the mitigations given to him so he's only got himself to blame (even if the players are really at fault)

[Hales]

So glad i decided to stay in bed and sleep off my nightshift than get up and watch this...........

 

Its diabolical now isnt it

Winks and Faes's last game for the club? A man can hope, it's all fallen apart since they returned to the starting XI.

 

Two of the most disgraceful players we have ever had.

Said exactly the same as we left the ground

First half abysmal. To give 2 goals away like that in the space of 4 minutes is a joke. Begovic has to do better with the second it’s a routine save. Second half so much better but ultimately when you hand a team a 3 goal lead it’s an absolute mammoth ask. Sheff Utd also had zero intention of playing second half so have to take that into account too. Mavididi and James the only ones to come out the game with any credit, although Skipp did well second half I thought. 

[David Hankey]

Rarely, can you hope to win a game when you've allowed the opposition to score twice within the first five minutes.

You have to look at the DOF for the hand all our failing managers are dealt. Giving out contracts to aging players and players that aren’t good enough has been our downfall. 
The manager is responsible for team selection and tactics so he also has to be held accountable. 
However to allow the squad to become so weak mentally, to not recognise what positions we desperately needed to strengthen and as above giving contracts to mediocre players lies at the hands of Rudkin.

He favours the kind of football Top still wants us to play even though the game is moving beyond it. 

Considering King Power are in the financial shit because of their failure to diversify and move with the times, it shouldn't surprise you our football club is suffering from the same disease.

Bit harsh on lads enjoying a kick about that, most of us here put way more effort in during goalposts-for-jumpers, dodge-the-dogshit football than these primadonnas ever do.

Someone please remind me why Marti got the gig. Pretty average record I believe. Was he just cheap or perhaps the only person silly enough to take on the job with no chance of spending?

Because he paid for it!

Yeah fair enough 👍🏻

[Livid]

Left at half time, don’t care about the second half improvement. In fact I don’t care at all anymore.

 

There’s no real connect for me to this Leicester City, I don’t relate to the players, manager or the club. It’s almost like they have treated me as a customer for so long that’s just what I feel like. I didn’t boo them, chant about them not being fit to wear the shirt, get irate about the appalling defending, I just got up and walked away. 
 

First goal was atrocious, second and third were ok to concede but we didn’t lay a glove on them. That’s unacceptable. 

[Mike Oxlong]

We have comprehensively disproven that you get what you pay for 

[woznotwos]

What a pile of dog turd. Glad I never watched it and just came on to foxestalk to check the final result. Less invested that way. Sorry to all those that did. 9 point deduction will see this pile down.

[Blueman1967]

Woeful first.half, they let us back into the second half.

[Weller was god]

Playing out from the back can be dangerous for good sides. When poor teams like Leicester tryit its suicidal 

[dannythefox]

You’ve just conceded 3 goals away before HT, fresh start Saturday, 2 down after 3 mins ffs. 

Walked out on 33mins, the club is in free fall in every department. The only thing we are good at is letting goals in.

I went to the gym and had a sauna instead of watching.

 

A bloke came in and let a fart go as he stepped up onto the middle bench, and it absolutely stank.

 

I would rather go back into that hot cloud of guff than watch the highlights of this game.

I don't think it does but each to their own, maybe I'm just too laid back to get wound up over people being personable with people they know. If they were stood all having a laugh as a team I'd probably agree they'd look like tits

 

Not arsed about Roy Keane. Bloke ended a man's career and made wanky comments about Clive Clarke having a heart attack.

Sorry, you’re not allowed to say that on here.
